[slambert]

1st live tourney i ever played...Borgata $30r - rebought at beginning and never added on (cause i had no idea)

2 classic hands to recap (just so I can have some laughs):

1. Table broke, had about about the average (3500). I had just been BB and table broke the hand after I posted SB. Anyway, the seat i randomly select is BB and I put up a minifit with the Director. Finally, I sit, and am dealt AA first hand. a short stack pushes for 2500, chipleader with huge stacks calls, another guy calls (hes all in 2300), comes to me I push and immediately flip over my AA all pumped, before chipleader calls the additional chips. Anyway, the table kinda flips out and chipleader folds. Flop comes 3 X X and chipleader slams the table. He had 33 and woulda busted me. Ironically, I go on and beat him HU to take it down.

2. I have A5 and am shortstack with 15 left. I order a shot of tequila and push, KJ calls (all in) and AQ calls. K X X flops, I take the shot, A turns, 5 on river. I trip up and go on to win.

anyway, $3.5K
